Pepperdine Caruso Law Hosts Mental Health Awareness Week 2025

In honor of Mental Health Awareness Day, Pepperdine Caruso School of Law hosted Mental Health Awareness Week on October 6-9. The events encouaged students to pause, breathe, and give themselves a well-deserved moment of rest.

The week kicked off with the Alpaca-thon, where students had the chance to meet and pet baby goats, sheep, and an alpaca.

On Tuesday, all of the Caruso Law deans shared the highs and lows of their legal careers and spoke candidly about managing the stress of being a lawyer. Thursday’s event focused on Finding Your Purpose, inviting students to reflect on their motivations for pursuing law school and reflect on their journey.

The week wrapped up with Bubbles and Yoga, where students gathered on the back patio to unwind through yoga, blow bubbles, and create their own self-care kits.

On Mental Health Awareness Day, and every day, take a moment to check in with yourself, find humor in your life, and appreciate the small moments.
